Alfonso Ribeiro was on Silver Spoons. At about the same time he was doing Pepsi commericals. And in one commerical a boy who looked like Alfonso died on the set doing a headspin breakdancing.

Just wondering if anyone has any info on the boy who died. When and where it happened and what is the back story around this incident. I have serached everywhere online high and low and can't find any info on it.

As a child of the 80's, I seem to vaguely remember a rumor that sounded like what you're asking about. Although, in the 80's there were hundreds of mini-Michael Jackson-look-alikes, so the odds are it wasn't Alfonso, if that's what you're asking. Sorry, that's all I really can remember.
